Tina Fey talks about Alice's birth

I ended up on all fours in the back of a taxi with my husband on the way to the hospital.

Thoughthat sounds crazy, Tina says the birth itself went along smoothly,thanks to the help of Stadol, a narcotic generally used to reduce pain,and an epidural, which are the first drugs the comedienne has evertaken.

I had a very lucky and good experience. Once I got in the hospital, Ivery quickly accepted Stadol, which is a narcotic. A lot of women wouldsay it’s bad to do that because you are giving your baby a narcotic.But she’s fine. She’s really, really fine. When I woke up, somehow Iwas almost completely dilated and the nurses were congratulating me.Then I had an epidural, and I was lucky that it was a good one andeffective. I always knew I wanted an epidural. I am not a daredevil. Ihad lived a drug-free life until that moment. I had never done anyrecreational drugs, and I felt like I had saved them all up for themoment when that baby was coming.

I have had surgeries before when I’ve been unconscious, but I havenever used any kind of recreational drug. I want to be on record sayingthis, so my daughter can see it one day in the future. I have neverdone any drugs! I am extremely square and obedient in nature!

Tina says it’s been hard working on 30 Rock and being a mom, but she’s lucky she’s able to bring Alice to the set.

I try to have Alice visit the set 1 or 2 days a week, which is nice.She comes for a couple of hours at lunchtime. It’s good, but in someways I feel bad because I look around at the crew, and their kids haveto stay at home in day care. So I feel a little bit like a spoiled brat.
